Well. after only 8 months of trying to get out on a good night, I finally got an image with my new ML8300, MI-250 mount and new pier. Actually, the camera I have had for 8 mounts, but the mount and pier are only a month old.
I chose a simple subject, something in a good part of the sky with some detail and nice star filed background, M8.
Here is a link to a larger image, but they will not allow my full resolution image of 3326 x 2504 pixels, so it is sized down and compressed a bit to 1600 x 1200 so I could put it in the gallery. Wish I could show the full version, but oh well.

Here is a more compressed and smaller version that will work here.
Hope you like it.
